  • Tom Homan, President-elect Donald Trump's pick to oversee "the largest deportation operation in American history," revealed Friday that the new administration is considering setting up a hotline that would allow Americans to report migrants suspected of committing crimes.

Tom Homan, former acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and now a border czar for Donald Trump's campaign, has proposed the creation of a hotline for Americans to report migrants they suspect of criminal activity. This suggestion comes as part of Trump's broader immigration policy, which includes mass deportations and the use of local police in immigration enforcement. Homan's idea is to empower citizens to report undocumented immigrants, particularly those they believe might be involved in criminal activities, directly to authorities. This proposal has sparked controversy, with critics arguing it could lead to racial profiling and harassment of immigrants, while supporters see it as a tool to enhance community safety and enforce immigration laws more effectively.
